Where this name comes from?
The name "Yuejian" was given by my great grandfather. "Yue" (月) means the moon. "Jian" (剑) means the sword. He said: "A sword under a brilliant moon light looks pretty cool!"
A name should be easy to remember, especially, cool to pronounce. An interesting cartoon MUZZY's STORY has a charactor Corvax (not Corvarx). I decided to borrow this name.
A name is good to be unique all over the world. It is really bad to hit thousands of unrelated webpages when one googles his/her name. So, I added one more letter "r" into the name Corvax, changing it to be Corvarx.
I wish there is no other people using this name.
